I am doing this challenge again this year. I only started it late in 2016 .
This challenge will start on the 1st January. Lets see how many 5ps we can save.
Mine will be used to go into savings ie; my isa account.

Good Luck with this challenge;

Leave your name and I will add you to the list and allocate a number to you.

Just intrigued by how you're all getting on? Not doing the 5p challenge (though have started saving any coins I find in a sealed tub) but just like to know how other people are getting on with the different challenges.

If you wish to continue paying 5p per bag then yes you can continue to buy them MathewAinsworth.

I save my 5ps for my savings and buy several strong bags for my shopping which are reusable and last.

How this site works

We think it's important you understand the strengths and limitations of the site. We're a journalistic website and aim to provide the best MoneySaving guides, tips, tools and techniques, but can't guarantee to be perfect, so do note you use the information at your own risk and we can't accept liability if things go wrong.

This info does not constitute financial advice, always do your own research on top to ensure it's right for your specific circumstances and remember we focus on rates not service.

Do note, while we always aim to give you accurate product info at the point of publication, unfortunately price and terms of products and deals can always be changed by the provider afterwards, so double check first.

We don't as a general policy investigate the solvency of companies mentioned (how likely they are to go bust), but there is a risk any company can struggle and it's rarely made public until it's too late (see the Section 75 guide for protection tips).

We often link to other websites, but we can't be responsible for their content.

Always remember anyone can post on the MSE forums, so it can be very different from our opinion.

MoneySavingExpert.com is part of the MoneySupermarket Group, but is entirely editorially independent. Its stance of putting consumers first is protected and enshrined in the legally-binding MSE Editorial Code.
